Writing techniques for Auditors and Risk Management professionals focus on the construction of the writing argument. By understanding the different approaches to gathering and aggregating data, analysis, and results from conversations and tests, the writer becomes the vehicle of communication for senior management. This webinar provides clear guidance on how to translate information into influential thought presented in reports, memos, or whitepapers.
This webinar helps those required to present difficult messages while influencing a change to process, policy, or practices. Further, anyone who wants to discover the technique of changing data and results into meaningful and persuasive written arguments needs to attend this session. But make no mistake, this is not your typical writing class as we will not discuss grammar, sentence construction, or necessarily style, rather we will focus on facts, data, and conversions to persuasion.
